Mark Carney in His Own (Damning)Words

Let’s elect a Goldman Sachs banker as prime minister! What could go wrong?

The ultimate insider? Mark Carney, the first Canadian Prime Minister to have never held a seat in the House of Commons, is running as an incumbent. His CV includes senior positions in Goldman Sachs, Governor of the Bank of England, Governor of the Bank of Canada, and economic advisor to prime minister Justin Trudeau. He’s also attended meetings of the World Economic Forum and the uber-secretive Bilderberg Committee, worked as the United Nations’ special envoy on climate action and climate finance, and was employed by the scandal-plagued private company, Brookfield Management, which besides being “Net Zero”-crazed also invests heavily in fossil fuel concerns (almost as if the guy is profitably playing both sides of the climate issue).

For a deeper and more disturbing dive into Carney’s CV, go here.

“I know how the world works, I know how to get things done, I’m connected and I can deliver for the country,” Carney said in Feb. 15, 2025 interview. “People will charge me with being elitist or a globalist, to use that term, which is, well, that’s exactly, it happens to be exactly what we need."

Let’s let the self-described “elitist”hang himself further with his own words. It was late winter 2022 when truck drivers and other protestors descended on Ottawa to demonstrate against the pandemic mandates — coincidentally, just when prime minister Justin Trudeau skipped town to recover from a convenient case of Covid. Carney penned an editorial for The Globe and Mail on Feb. 7, 2022, entitled: “It’s time to end the sedition in Ottawa by enforcing the law and following the money.”

This item has already had some traction on social media, but it’s well worth repeating.

“In our capital city, many people have been terrorized for more than a week. Women fleeing abuse have been harassed. Many elderly have been too afraid to venture outside their homes for groceries. Women fleeing abuse have been harassed,” the Goldman Sachs banker fulminated, trading generalized unsourced claims for journalistic specifics.

“The goals of the leadership of the so-called freedom convoy were clear from the start: to remove from power the government that Canadians elected less than six months ago,” he continued. That was a bald-faced lie* but it fit perfectly well into the barrage of state-sponsored, media-endorsed propaganda on the Freedom Convoy.

The manufactured consent about the nonviolent protestors in Ottawa wasn’t just limited to Justin Trudeau’s infamous description of them as “racists and misogynists.” Journalists and politicians freely traded in slurs like “homophobic,” “transphobic,” “mercenaries,” “anti-vaxxers,” “anti-Semites,” a “feral mob” and “terrorists.”

In his excellent 2024 book, Unjustified: The Freedom Convoy, the Emergencies Act, and the Inquiry That Got it Wrong, journalist Ray McGinnis observed:

Canadian truck drivers, nurses, and doctors fired from hospitals, federal employees in the Canadian Armed Forces, and different agencies were called “Trump supporters,” “white supremacists”, and “far-right.” As negative descriptors piled up, the media and politicians drove this viscerally powerful message. The general public felt increasingly overwhelmed and threatened by what they saw and read.

…

Rumours about the Ottawa Protesters were many and varied. It was alleged they planned to ram trucks into Parliament buildings. It was claimed they planned to lynch politicians. Protesting parents were accused of using their children as human shields.

I could go on and deconstruct each hallucinatory paragraph in Carney’s 2022 screed, but let’s cut to the main issue. “But by now anyone sending money to the convoy should be in no doubt: You are funding sedition,” he wrote in no uncertain terms. “Foreign funders of an insurrection interfered in our domestic affairs from the start. Canadian authorities should take every step within the law to identify and thoroughly punish them.”

“Drawing the line means choking off the money that financed this occupation,” he added.

Just ten days after Carney penned his piece, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance (and World Economic Forum trustee) Chrystia Freeland announced the freezing of the bank accounts and assets of all convoy protestors and those who donated to their cause.

At the time of Carney’s editorial for the Globe, he was economic advisor to prime minister Trudeau. Either the bankster’s fingerprints are all over this decision or we have to applaud his spooky powers of precognition. Considering he’s godfather to Chrystia Freeland’s son — it’s a big club and you ain’t in it — we can safely assume the two of them were conversing about more than just junior’s growth spurt.

The government froze the bank accounts of Canadian citizens who hadn't committed any crimes. This action deprived citizens of their ability to pay rent, mortgages, utility bills, alimony and purchase medical prescriptions or groceries. The government ignored police evidence and intelligence reports confirming Ottawa protesters gathered peacefully-including reports on the early afternoon of February 14, 2022. Media reports and politicians avoided mentioning that no police or intelligence agency declared the protests to constitute an unlawful assembly. An Ontario court issued two rulings on February 7 and 16, giving protesters the green light to continue to protest peacefully. In the latter case, the protesters had satisfied the judge's February 7 horn-honking injunction. Nonetheless, politicians repeatedly referred to the protest as illegal.

Whether you sympathized with the Freedom Convoy cause or not, the protestors had done nothing more than exercise their charter-guaranteed right to protest peacefully against government actions. Those who gave money to the Freedom Convoy had also committed no crimes.

To repeat for emphasis: ten days before the freezing of Canadian bank accounts, bankster Carney was accusing those who donated to the Freedom Convoy of sedition, and advocated “choking off the money that financed this occupation.”

This was a first in the western democratic world: in the pages of a national newspaper a nonelected official successfully counselling elected leaders to debank Canadians for exercising Charter-protected rights. An ugly precedent had been set: under the pretext of a state of emergency, or any sufficiently trumped-up excuse, Canadian politicians can instruct banks to freeze the assets of Canadian citizens for any legal activities they deem unacceptable.

This precedent conjures up the conspiratorial but not unbelievable specter of ‘social credit’ scoring systems aligned to central bank digital currencies and universal basic income. Exactly the kind of policy initiatives you would expect a central banker/deep state insider like Mark Carney to preside over if things went seriously economically sideways up north.

Self-described “elitist” Carney has attended a number of the World Economic Forum’s yearly gatherings in Davos, where business leaders and world leaders hobnob in the interests of “stakeholder capitalism” — a euphemism for mutual benefit. This may well be why the guy is now running for the office he was parachuted into: he’s the right man for the global elitists’ bank job.

The problem here is than an unspoken role of government in representative democracies is to act as a legislative buffer between the public and the corporate/financial sector. Sure, it’s more of a semipermeable membrane than a firewall these days, particularly after years of regulatory capture, but we now appear to dispensing entirely with the distinction between elected officials and members of a plutocratic, transnational elite.

Carney is a fox, and Canada is his henhouse.

A final thought. The Davos man is positioned by the CBC and other Canadian media as the best ballot box option to oppose Orange Thing and his cartoonish rhetoric about Canada becoming a 51st state (even though Carney initially lied about his exchange with Trump on that matter). Yet Trump himself has stated his preference for Liberal Carney over Conservative Pierre Poliviere. “I think it’s actually easier dealing with a Liberal,” he stated.

I’m not sure if Trump’s imperialist bluster is part of a collapsing empire windmilling at enemies and allies alike, and/or indicative of a fracture in the global superclass. Or if it’s simply kayfabe, with Trump playing the northern hemispheric role of Tariff Tornado to Carney’s Bankster Insider.

Problem, reaction, solution.

In any case, don’t fantasize Cheaty Con Carney as any kind of electoral solution for Canada. Unless you’re part of the plutocratic problem, of course.

*Here’s a summary of the actual stated goals of the Freedom Convoy organizers:

The stated aim of the Freedom Convoy by its organizers was initially to oppose the federal COVID-19 vaccine mandate for cross-border truck drivers, which required drivers re-entering Canada to be fully vaccinated or face testing and quarantine requirements. As the movement gained momentum, its goals expanded to call for the abolition of all federal and provincial COVID-19 mandates and restrictions across Canada. Organizers and spokespeople emphasized ending vaccine mandates and vaccine passports, with some describing the protest as a broader "freedom movement" rather than an anti-vaccination campaign.

Key points stated by organizers included:

• Ending the federal vaccine mandate for cross-border truckers

• Ending all COVID-19 restrictions and mandates in Canada

• Opposition to what they saw as government overreach and authoritarianism in pandemic policies - Perplexity.ai
